Crap.
I've been taking 3 times as much of this stuff as I am supposed to. My doctor and I agreed verbally that I should be taking 25mg t.i.d. at an earlier visit. What was dispensed to me was 75mg t.i.d. The script was written that way. My doctor wrote the script in error. I never bother to check the bottle. When we agreed to 75mg t.i.d. at my most recent visit. Insurance wouldn't pay for it. So I figured they wanted me to finish what I had left of what I thought were 25mg. So I've been taking 3 pills t.i.d. I moved up pretty quick too. That's 675mg.
I feel a little dopey. A little intoxicated. That's about it.
I wish I could say that I were feeling batter. I don't.
I have to reduce my dosage now. I'm screwed, though. I won't have enough to make it until my next refill. Insurance won't cover a premature request. I hope this is a fun ride.
